Thank you everyone for this tremendous response! So many food lovers, good luck to all you people, we keep nations moving with delicious food.

I just received my IELTS score, which came out something that I never expected. I have started another thread to get some help evaluating. I maybe on dot 67 or lesser.

I may have to give the test again, but regardless, I lets say in touch and keep this thread alive.

[winendine]

Well after a some investigation, I have decided to apply, since I am right on 67 points. I wish it were higher for some margin or error.

I am 27 years old with 16 years of education with a post graduate degree; I have been working for more than 4 years and my IELTS score comes to 14 points. 7 band overall. 8-5-8-7
( been speaking English all my life, LOL studied IELTS for 4 days, I was a fool to over estimate myself  )

So sending my application by next week.

hey guys,
please bring this thread to life again. This is a really important thread for people applying under NOC 6241 or 6242 MI-3. Share your experiences and keep this thread alive just by posting something. this is the best way to track progress and be prepared whats coming for the new ones like me, we need to keep this thread on first page. i will be posting something in this thread every day from now on so that it stays on first or second page. good luck to all who have applied and good luck to those who will be applying soon as me.
